distraction, procrastination, and other things that end in "-tion"

Edinburgh, Scotland. So Jemily will be jetting off to the land of the free and home of the brave this weekend for work. And I have that small, silly "little" dissertation that requires some much-needed attention (*she types, while staring at a blank Word document for the 3rd day in a row*. Woe) So we will be taking a brief break from some of our regular scheduled programming until things are back under control. And I am not just talking about my ever-expanding waistline (re-join the gym - check. I mean, that is half the battle won, right?!).

What will change, you ask - well, we will be keeping up with Wednesday Mensday, but putting Sunday Song on hold. And after tomorrow's post, The Agony and the Ex-tacy blog series will resume in the last week in August. So, not really much at all then!

I have been struggling to focus on successfully making it to graduation at the end of the year, because I live in Edinburgh. And it is August.

Which means the largest annual cultural festival, aptly named Edinburgh Festival, is happening on my doorstep. Right this second. And it goes for a full month, people. The month that is crunch time for my MBA. Crisis. I just want to go to comedy shows (all of them) and drink beer from plastic cups (all the time) *sob*

Also, summer has come to Scotland, at long last. Which makes being indoors researching stuff terribly boring. The sun stays up until 9pm. The pubs and bars are open until 3am (thank you Festival). It's so hard to be a good little student.

PS. For those of you nerds who are wondering about those other words that end in "-tion", here, I saved you the time: dissertation, attention, addiction, graduation. You're welcome :)

PPS. We missed Wednesday Mensday yesterday, my bad. You can look forward to a TRIPLE bill next week. Yes, three men. Thrice the fun. Ok, ok, you get it...
